Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer will be the next Trump administration official to depart, the White House announced on Monday.
Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, announced DeRemer's departure in a post on X.
"Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer will be leaving the Administration to take a position in the private sector," Cheung wrote. "She has done a phenomenal job in her role by protecting American workers, enacting fair labor practices, and helping Americans gain additional skills to improve their lives. Keith Sonderling will take on the role of Acting Secretary of Labor."
DeRemer is the third cabinet secretary to depart the Trump administration this year. Attorney General Pam Bondi was let go after she failed to prosecute the president's enemies, and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem resigned after a series of leadership missteps.
